Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Video Game) | comment |
Released in 1997, Kirby's Dream Land 3 is the SNES sequel to Kirby's Dream Land 2, and the second game in Shinichi Shimomura's "trilogy" arc of the Kirby series. Much like the previous game, there is a small number of Copy Abilities; the same seven abilities from Dream Land 2 plus the new Cleaning ability. These abilities are more oriented towards puzzle solving than combat.While Kirby of Dream Land is out on a fishing trip with his pal Gooey, they notice a black, cloud-like object ominously descending in the PopStar sky, scattering smaller, tentacle-like clouds throughout the land. Coo the owl rushes to inform Kirby that the planet is in big trouble, so he and his allies go to save the day once again.A number of expansions have been made over its predecessor. First, borrowing from the helper system in Kirby Super Star, Gooey can be summoned either as a CPU-controlled helper or a P2-controlled character. Gooey can also copy abilities just like Kirby by capturing enemies with his tongue.Returning from the previous game are the animal friends: Rick, who has gained the ability to Wall Jump and Goomba Stomp but has lost his Vacuum Mouth; Kine, who no longer hops slowly out of water; and Coo, who's undergone some slight movement tweaks and had some of his Copy Ability variants nerfed. Joining them are three new animal friends: Nago, a giant cat who can triple jump and Goomba Stomp just like Rick can; ChuChu, an octopus who can cling to ceilings; and Pitch, a bird who flies much like Kirby does. Like in Dream Land 2, using a Copy Ability while riding an animal friend creates a new attack. The biggest expansion over the original is that unlike there being an optional puzzle per level (world), there is an optional puzzle per stage. Replacing the Rainbow Drops as the optional collectable of the game opening the path to the True Final Boss are the Heart Stars. Each stage has a specific objective to complete for a heartbroken character in order to obtain their Heart Star.Though Kirby's Adventure set the standard for the series' gameplay and Kirby Super Star codified it, Dream Land 3 did much to establish its storytelling hallmarks, placing them at center stage. The plot is much more elaborate than before, yet simultaneously ramps up the emphasis on Show, Don't Tell, conveying itself with zero dialogue. Furthermore, the game saw greater focus on Surprisingly Creepy Moments — offsetting its innocuous atmosphere with sudden forays into Surreal Horror that grow especially prominent in the final act — and introduced the first configuration of the Theater mode (albeit as a 100% Completion reward). All of these aspects would become mainstays for the series even after it moved away from this game's more relaxed pace.This game was one of the last Nintendo-owned games to be released on the SNES, and the last first-party title released for the system in North America (a full year after the release of the Nintendo 64); as such, it stands as one of the best-looking games released for the system. It uses a unique pastel-drawn look not unlike the crayon aesthetic of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, but is enhanced by a special rendering filter that blends pixels together, a precursor to the High Definition filters used in emulation and modern releases of classic games today. Uniquely, it is also one of the few Kirby games to see an American release first; the Japanese version, Hoshi no Kirby 3, was released four months later.This game was followed up by Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, the final game in the Dark Matter Trilogy. | |

Bloodier and Gorier | |
Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Video Game) / int_1f963842 | comment |
Bloodier and Gorier: The previous Kirby games have no blood. This game's final boss Zero cuts itself to shoot its blood at you, then flies into the background to shoot Tears of Blood at you. THEN, when you damage it enough, an inner part of its eye bloodily sheds its sclera and the blood-soaked internal remainder pops out and comes after you. Then its final form explodes into blood when beaten. Truly insane for such an otherwise cutesy game. | |

Artwork and Game Graphics Segregation | |
Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Video Game) / int_49354751 | comment |
Artwork and Game Graphics Segregation: Ado is an unusual case. In her official artwork, she's depicted with a stout body, mittenlike hands, and Black Bead Eyes, which matches her sprite. However, the close-ups of her depicted in the game's credits show her with more realistically designed hands and eyes with visible sclerae. Kirby: Art & Style Collection features a page◊ discussing Ado's design, revealing that her more detailed appearance in the game's credits is indeed her intended appearance and that her sprite's appearance, which the official art used as reference material, is a simplified rendition made due to graphical limitations. | |

Getting Crap Past the Radar | |
Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Video Game) / int_4b86a724 | comment |
Getting Crap Past the Radar: The True Final Boss is Zero, a giant eye with a red iris who shoots blood at you as an attack, and later rips the iris out of its body in a gory manner to keep fighting. Once you defeat the boss, it explodes in a shower of blood. For a while, the game was rated K-A/E, and it took 15 years for the ESRB to catch on with Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition, which is rated E10+ with a content warning for "animated blood". However, re-releases of Dream Land 3 are still E-rated, despite the game contents being unchanged since the 1997 release. | |

Long Song, Short Scene: There are two songs that can play at the end of each stage depending on whether or not its mission was completed. The "success" theme is the happier of the two and about as long as you'd expect a song that plays on a one-screen wide area to be (not very). The "failure" theme, on the other hand, plays for over half a minute without looping on a screen you have absolutely no incentive to stick around on. | |

Boss Rush: Beating the True Final Boss unlocks "Boss Butch", a straight run through all the bosses in order with no healing or copy-abilities (and you can't call Gooey). The fight against Ado is itself a mini-boss rush. She summons weaker versions of bosses fought in Kirby's Dream Land 2: Ice Dragon, Sweet Stuff, Mr. Shine and Mr. Bright, and Kracko.

Inconsistent Spelling: The manual lists Whispy Woods as WhispyWoods, Acro as Akro the Whale, Pon & Con as Raccoon & Fox, and Waddle Dee as Waddledee. It also couldn't seem to decide if the new ability is called Broom or Clean, as the game itself only shows icons rather than names for abilities. Nintendo Power used "Broom" throughout its walkthrough, while the anime called it "Clean" which later became "Cleaning" in Kirby Star Allies. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Most of the Heart Star missions have very vague hints or none at all on what you need to do to complete them. One of them requires you to know what you do in another video game series. To complete the Heart Star mission for Iceberg 2, you need to destroy several Metroids by freezing them with ice and kicking them into lava. You would never guess that you had to use ChuChu's inhale (or rather, slap) on MuchiMuchi, the green Bouncy in Grass Land's second level. | |

Mini-Game: One Heart Star mission per world is a speed memorization minigame that has to do with Gordos. They range from spotting the color of a Gordo, memorizing how many there are of a color, and memorizing what sound a Gordo makes. If you fail it, you have to do the whole level again just to play it again, let alone get the heart star of that level. | |

Art Shift: Within the context of the series, the game shifts from its usual cartoon-esque sprites to a crayon and pastel-drawn look unique to this game, making use of special rendering filters to blend pixels together. In-game, several of the cameo characters use 8-bit sprites directly from their original games, contrasting with the game's pastel look: Donbe and Hikari from Shin Onigashima, Goku and Chao from Yūyūki, and R.O.B.'s companion, Professor Hector. | |

Doppelgänger | |
Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Video Game) / int_c4b09e97 | comment |
Doppelgänger: The mysterious Batamon enemy, which patrols in mostly unreachable areas, although Pitch's Spark attack can easily dispatch them and there's a secret exit in Cloudy Park 3 with loads of them where you actually can touch one of them. This enemy has a highly uncanny resemblance to Kirby, just with a wider face. | |

Shout-Out | |
Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The level names Grass Land, Ripple Field, and Hyper Zone are references to the same level names in HyperZone, which was another game also developed by HAL Laboratory. ChuChu with the Cleaning ability gets a large Flying Broomstick to ride on. Due to her big, red hair ribbon, she looks quite reminiscient of Kiki from Kiki's Delivery Service. And then there are the enemies called "KeKe" that also fly on broomsticks. | |

Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Video Game) / int_cb92ce71 | comment |
Defeat Equals Friendship: If you visit a defeated boss after collecting all Heart Stars in their level, they won't fight anymore. Justified in that they only fought you because they were tainted by Dark Matter, and collecting all the Heart Stars in their level exorcises it from them. | |

Escort Mission: The penultimate stage of each level always has a Heart Star mission that requires you to bring a certain animal friend to the end. In order, you must reunite Kine with his wife, reunite Pitch with his mother, reunite ChuChu with her best friend, and reunite Rick and Nago with their respective girlfriends. | |

Anti-Frustration Features: Whenever the player enters an area that is relevant to the objective, a special chime will play that warns the player in advance. Likewise, there's a different jingle that plays when the player successfully completes the goal, and another that plays when the player fails to complete the goal. | |

Company Cross References: Several of the Heart Star missions involve characters from other Nintendo games. For example, you have to assemble R.O.B. in one level and defeat several Metroids in another level. | |

Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Video Game) / int_dcb9c541 | comment |
Ship Tease: Kirby's interactions with ChuChu have some very romantic connotations; the manga adaptation outright depicts ChuChu with a crush on Kirby that is, in some strips, mutual. | |

Light Is Not Good | |
Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Video Game) / int_e543a655 | comment |
Light Is Not Good: Zero is the primarily white core of the Hyper Zone, and revives Dark Matter in a last-ditch effort of sparing the trouble of personally eliminating Kirby. Fitting, considering that white is traditionally worn at funerals in Japan. | |

Crossover | |
Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Video Game) / int_eb7c34cf | comment |
Crossover: Quite a bit of the Heart Star missions involve crossovers from other game series by Nintendo. Grass Land 4 requires you to fetch a monkey called Goku (no, not that Goku) for a girl named Chao, both of whom are characters from an obscure Family Computer game called Famicom Mukashibanashi: Yūyūki. Chao previously appeared in the Japanese version of Kirby's Dream Land 2 (she was replaced by a female Gooey in the international release). Sand Canyon 4 requires you to fetch the boy Donbe for his sister Hikari, both of whom are characters from Yūyūki's predecessor, Famicom Mukashibanashi: Shin Oni Ga Shima. Sand Canyon 6 requires you to assemble R.O.B. for Professor Hector. Most recognizable of them all, Iceberg 2 requires you to destroy several Metroids for Samus Aran. True to form, a mission accomplished causes Samus to remove her helmet. | |
